Module description

The SSL Visibility Appliance is designed to detect SSL traffic and then under policy control to "inspect" the traffic. Inspection involves decrypting and re-encrypting the traffic to gain access to the clear text then passing this data to one or more associated security appliance(s) that need to see decrypted traffic.
